DFW Meet Oct 7th or 8th, or 9th

Hey everyone, as the old saying goes "when the cat is away the mice will play", well my wife is going to Houston for that weekend sooo perfect time for a meet

This is just a feeler thread for a meet around the weekend of the 7th. Its been awhile since our last good meet, and would like to try and accommodate as many people as possible.

Want to keep it as central as possible (barring the grapevine traffic/construction) but might be open to other ideas.

I'll also liven the pot up a bit with the FYI that something that I think EVERYONE will be interested in will be a topic for discussion. Trust me on this one It involves going very fast for very long periods of time....

Just asked Jen about this, I'm not opposed to the idea (considering I haven't ever thrown a party), but I'd doubt there would be very many people willing to come all the way out here....

No kidding!! It takes me less time to drive down to College Station for football games than it does to drive to Thomas' house.

The evening of the 8th or anytime on the 9th are good for me. Prefer somewhere central, if your asking.

I was and am still asking and judging from the responses looks like a Sunday meet. (though I do have to question Nick's availability since that should be fall break and he should be available for more than just Sunday....)

Now, the question is going to be where. I doubt that Flower Mound would be much more central than grapevine is, but since its a Sunday traffic might not be so bad in grapevine, thoughts?

Maybe I hit Grapevine at a different spot, but I don't think it's all that bad.

Haha, yeah I'm not gonna show up that late on a Sunday. With the ATM game on Saturday night it for sure rules out Kyle, Brandon (creto), and Nick. (crazy football people) So its really a question of those that are left, who would prefer Sat night over Sunday afternoon.

I can likely make either day.

Also, I may have some insider information as to your topic of discussion.
